Hurricane Sandy left another crane in ruins, and the last hasn't worked in years. But the area is slated to be transformed, with crucial upgrades to the port and working waterfront.

It's not the 1950s anymore. We can have housing right up against modernized all-electric industrial maritime uses. You've got to plan it smartly, particularly as it relates to transportation and traffic.
Once it's gone, it's gone forever. You're not going to pull out housing or commercial development to create industrial land, " said Cortney Koenig Worra.
